I disagree. There is a valuable question of "how reliable does this system need to be?" and for startups, the answer is often not 5 9s of uptime.
99% uptime is 14 minutes of downtime per day. There are an awful lot of processes and even whole businesses that can eat 14 minutes of downtime a day. Especially if it's not a full outage.
